Can he play better than he has? Yes, but so could a lot of other back's.

like i said in another thread, i already see Gibbs changing the offense more for him by seeing Cooley line up as a lead fullback in I Formation this game. Cooley is a catching TE, and this is all new to him too, but i definitely noticed this new wrinkle to the offense. while it didn't net many yards against an 8men Raven defense who wasnt worried about our passing game, it DID stop the fumbling at point of impact...
